Please note before reading: it has been FOREVER since I've seen either 101 Dalmatians or Lady and the Tramp.While I can't say that I want your ideas in the actual game, after reading your post I am no

I don't think it's too far per se, since we have had some pretty strange Disney encounters in the past... (Still trying to figure out how Deep Space makes sense) But I'm just not sure those two franch

Ok, maybe I should have phrased that better They butchered Frollo's character. There, that's better
OK, guys, before starting the topic, I would like to make it clear: I already know there is a Lady and the Tramp statue in the Third District of Traverse Town in every game this world is present and that we can visit the Dalmatians's Den in this world (TT), too. However what I'm going to talk about here is the idea of these characters's world appearance, and not just a cameo.
So, this past weekend, I rewatched both Lady and the Tramp movies (I love both films with all my heart very much and equally. Yes, not everybody hates Disney sequels. At least, not me) and both 101 Dalmatians movies (the 1961 animated movie and the 2003 sequel, not the 1996 live-action movie and its 2000 sequel, OK?), and gotta tell you guys: why not put these worlds in KH3 or any other future title?
Why's that? Simple: because both movies (the original movies and its sequels) have a lot of potential, especially in the villains/plot part. Didn't we see in the D23 2013 trailer a swarm of Shadow Heartless going after Sora in Twilight Town? And didn't we see in KH3D that the Cornerstone of Light wasn't enough to protect Disney Castle from Maleficent and Pete? Its powers was getting weakened due to the strong influence of darkness, most certainly because of Xehanort and his new Organization, right?
But, let's get back to the real point: A Lady and the Tramp's and 101 Dalmatians's worlds would be fitting in KH series (especially in KH3, but that's just my opinion, OK? Maybe they might appear in any other future installment), since there are lots of antagonists in both movies and that could be related to what I mentioned in the previous paragraph: darkness is growing stronger, thus, there are (might be) more villains in the worlds in KH3. Besides, let's be honest: Lady and the Tramp is a romance movie, so, this special world could serve as a way to inspire Sora to finally express his feelings for Kairi about how much she's important to him (or how much he loves her) and vice-versa (I know they have done this multiple times in the series, except the love-tell-stuff, and those times proves us many things, but, still, I would like to see them confess their feelings to each other, this time with words, and not just making it appear like they're an unofficial couple. I want them to act like an official couple). Guys, please: if Sora (and other human characters) can understand what Goofy and Donald (as well as other animal characters and even gargoyles) says very clearly, why wouldn't he be able to communicate with Lady and Tramp? He could help Tramp and Lady get closer to each other (since he has done that many times with other couples before, right?), take them to any place to be alone (especially the restaurant where the dogs perform the famous sphagetti scene) and many other things, such as helping Tramp fighting that Rat (while shrunk inside the house, just like Ventus and Aqua in Castle of Dreams and Sora in Wonderland, but this only when inside the house due to an unknown factor) while protecting the baby in the crib. After this battle, the plot would follow the original movie, however, while that evil old lady (Aunt Sarah) locks Tramp in the wardrobe and Lady in the basement and calls the dog pound to take Tramp away, her two siamese cats (Si and Am) hide the Rat's body to blame Lady and Tramp even further (as Aunt Sarah thought both dogs were trying to harm the baby) (I've heard/read in some sites, after lots of researches, that these cats really did that in a novelization of the original movie, so this could work for the game, just like that scene in Aqua's chapter in Castle of Dreams, which wasn't on the original movie, where Cinderella and the Prince finally meet/reunite again). So Sora and co's mission would be fight the cats and take the proof (the dead body, of course, not seen nor shown on screen, since this is a Disney game) back to the room where he fought the Rat just in time for Lady's owners to arrive and see. As they go after the dogcatcher to rescue Tramp, Sora and co (in their normal sizes) would have to reach the car before it reached the dog pound (that dog Trusty could help them track down which way the car went). As Sora and co, Lady and her owners and Trusty are about to release Tramp, the car where the dog is trapped would actually transform into a monstrous Heartless ready to take down Tramp, but Sora and co save him of course, defeat the Heartless and then Tramp is adopted by Lady's owners, marries her and has those four puppies seen in the end of the first film. If KH3 have a "visit-the-same-world-twice" like KH2, then the plot could follow Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure, with Sora and co trying to convince Scamp to return home with his father and all the plot would, obviously, going to be the same as the movie. And please, don't tell me/don't come with: "Ah, it's a very short time between Sora's two visits in the same world for the puppies to have already been born and grown up a bit". Really? Then how you guys explain to me the second time we visit Pride Lands, Nala mentions Simba will be a father and Kiara (their daughter) is shown in the credits scenes already? You see? Time really flows differently in each world, so this wouldn't be a problem. After his adventures in this world (Lady and the Tramp's world) are over, he could finally get inspired to tell Kairi his true feelings about her (maybe at the ending of the game after the final battle, who knows), seeing Lady and the Tramp's and Scamp and Angel's relationships.
As for the 101 Dalmatians, since we have nothing (no details) on what events happened/were happening in their homeworld before it was swallowed by the darkness and then Pongo and Perdita (the parents) ended up in Traverse Town with the puppies scattered in a group of 3 in chests in other worlds, the plot could follow the original movie, with Cruella, Jasper and Horace kidnapping the puppies and Sora and co having to save all of them again. In the second visit, the plot would follow the original movie's sequel, and with Patch (one of the puppies) wanting to be different from his siblings, who obviously, are all Dalmatians, that could certainly serve as a lesson to Sora that, for example, even if he and Roxas are "somebody" and a "nobody" and both inhabit the same body, they're in no way the same person. Each person, no matter how similar they might look (Patch and his siblings, Sora and Roxas/Roxas and Ventus), they're in no way the same being. Different minds, different hearts, different thoughts, so this world could really be helpful in the plot (as well as Lady and the Tramp's one) to some extent.
Oh, and please, don't come also with: "These films have very real-world places like London, it wouldn't work out very well". So what? London and the Big Bang clock are seen in KH1 (London is even mentioned by name by Wendy in Re: CoM), The Emperor says the word "China" in KH2, Phil says "Greece" in BBS, a map of Africa was seen in Deep Jungle's tent and nobody complained. So I'm pretty sure the staff could come with a creative name for these worlds, couldn't they?
PS: I know, I know, there are/there might be plenty of other Disney worlds/films who could replace these 2 worlds I mentioned, however, I would like to see these worlds specifically, because, aside from "A 100 Acre Woods" and "Deep Space", which other worlds already shown in KH have talking animals as the main characters (I can't remember any now)? Besides, Lady and the Tramp and 101 Dalmatians would be good choices for new "old" worlds, since EVERY game has worlds based on movies produced/released before or after Walt Disney's death, right?
So, guys, please leave here your thoughts/opinions on this post. Let me know them. What did you guys think of it?
Love and peace...
